I'm looking for a new laptop to replace my 10-year-old Clevo model. It will be used exclusively for Linux, for web and software development and general tinkering around, so doesn't need to be a high spec. However the old laptop had a 1400x1050 screen and so I want the new one to be at least as good.
I was set to order the Genesys IV model with 1900x1080 matte screen, however the configurator says that screen won't work with the built-in Intel graphics and requires an Nvidia card. I've seen mention elsewhere on the Forum that there are issues with dual-graphics-cards machines under Linux, so I'd like some reassurance that it will actually work before ordering.
My distro of choice is Mageia 2.
